Effect of intraoperative blood loss on postoperative complications and prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer: A meta‑analysis.
Article in Biomedical reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to evaluate whether the amount of intraoperative blood loss (IBL) affects the complications and prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). The PubMed, EMBASE and the Cochrane Library databases were used to search for eligible studies from inception to November 30, 2020. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (Cls) were pooled up. The overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were compared between the larger IBL group and the smaller IBL group. The present study was performed with RevMan 5.3 (The Cochrane Collaboration). A total of seven studies involving 1,540 patients with CRC were included in the present study. The smaller IBL group had a higher rate of OS (HR=1.45, 95% CI=1.17 to 1.8, P=0.0007) and a higher rate of DFS (HR=1.76, 95% CI=1.40 to 2.21, P<0.00001). Furthermore, the larger IBL group had a higher rate of postoperative complications than the smaller IBL group (odds ratio=2.06, 95% CI=1.72 to 2.15, P<0.00001). In conclusion, a smaller IBL was associated with better OS and DFS, and a lower risk of postoperative complications compared with a larger IBL in patients with CRC, suggesting that surgeons should pay more attention during perioperative management and surgical operation to reduce IBL.
